Dinner theatre spells F-U-N-N-Y
Audience laughter will drown out spelling eliminations
Audience members should bring their dictionaries to the Fort Gordon Dinner Theatre for The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, a one-act musical comedy that centers around a fictional spelling bee set in at Putnam Valley Middle School.
Six quirky adolescents compete in the Bee, run by three equally-quirky grown-ups. But three or four real audience members will be invited on stage to compete in the spelling bee alongside the six young characters. During the 2005 Tony Awards, former Presidential candidate Al Sharpton competed.
This is the first time that The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee has been performed in the Augusta area. The show will run Feb. 12-13, 19-20, and 25-27. Tickets are $39 general; $36 active duty E7 and above, seniors, military retirees and DA civilians; $30 active duty E7 and below and $25 show only.
Located on 3rd Avenue, Building 32100

Embrace the Adventure and Magic of Ancient China of Disney’s Mulan at the Alliance Theatre
Feb. 24 – Mar. 19, 2010
The Alliance Children’s Theatre celebrates the legendary culture of ancient China where traditions are fundamental and the family honor supreme in the action-packed stage adaptation of Disney’s Mulan, an exotic musical based on the animated Disney movie. Rosemary Newcott, The Sally G. Tomlinson Artistic Director of Theatre for Youth, once again demonstrates her talent for understanding the rhythms and energy of Disney classics by staging this full-scale version with lavish sets and costumes in the theatrically inventive style of Aladdin and Seussical the Musical. Opening Night is Sat, Feb. 27, at 7 p.m. on the Alliance Stage. Tickets are available at the Woodruff Arts Center Box Office by calling 404.733.5000 or online at www.alliancetheatre.org.
In Mulan, the destiny of the Chinese people is in the hands of a girl who throws tradition aside to save her family and her emperor. With the help of an upstart dragon, Mulan discovers the hero inside of her and the truth that heroes come in all shapes and sizes!
Complete with towering puppets and the beloved score by the distinguished musical team of Matthew Wilder and David Zippel, Stephen Schwartz, Jeanine Tesori and Alexa Junge, Mulan is a must-see for families who have cherished the Disney classic. Live on stage are the spirited girl, her misfit companion Mushu (a dragon), members of her distinguished family (both past and present) and all the other lively characters who have delighted and inspired children since the movie’s release in 1998. The score includes favorites like “Reflection,” “Honor to Us All” and “I’ll Make a Man Out of You.”
Bryan Louiselle adapted and arranged the music and provided additional music and lyrics while Patricia Cotter adapted the book and provided additional lyrics.
The cast features eight local actors including Leslie Bellair as Mulan, Bernard Jones (Class of 3000 LIVE), J.C. Long (A Christmas Carol), Brandon O’Dell (Class of 3000 LIVE) and Alecia Robinson (Seussical the Musical).
